Challenging the At-Risk Label Discovery Minute

Join Professor Keffrelyn Brown as she discusses problems with educators’ use of the “at risk” label. She hopes to challenge how educators and policymakers think about the label, so that it can be used more equitably.

Brown is the Maxine Foreman Zarrow Endowed Faculty Fellow in Education in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction at the College of Education. In 2012 she received the Regent’s Outstanding Teaching award, the highest teaching honor given for excellence in undergraduate teaching across the University of Texas system. She was inducted into the Provost’s Teaching Fellows program at UT in 2017.
